Still get to keep the "AMAZING" part on!

 

Neat job!

 

I remember growing up in NW North Dakota-- both too wet and too dry!

 

I will take too wet anytime--Unless it is so severe as causing flooding!

Thanks Dan, it's easy to do with Microsoft word. every computer has it in programs just above the start buttom on the lower left corner of your screen.The font is MT bold scrypt and the letter size is 72 plus i chose the slant box and the bold box next to the size . :cool:

I can see why you named yourself "Amazingkevin", they are amazing. I personally haven't yet managed to cut out intricate names with such a large blade (I use a #3 or #5 blade max) and to cut them out with such smooth lines too, just brilliant work.

Keefie your right the blade was very big but i wanted to get this over with .I over extend myself way to much and for free ,but GOD see's all.On the turns i go into the turns a couple of times to round out a hole so i can turn the big blades without heating it up and destroying the blade,Maybe that's one reason the last so long.Usually an hour it about tops for a blade.The dw788 is so gentle on the up and down strokes unlike the lesser quality saws that hammar the up and down motion.That's why the blades in the lesser quality saws loosen up and then break so much.That was the first thing i noticed useing the dw788 no more broken blades!!! :cool:

Thanks ROLY, i'd like to try differant fonts in scrypt but have no idea how to load them into microsoft word or inkscape or gimp ???? :sad:

Kevin all your fonts are in the control panel under fonts but once you download the freebie font I usually drag the .ttf file or whatever the font file is called on the desktop and delete the rest. Then you just click on it on the desktop and install them, they will be available for your word and Inkscape programs now. I then drag them off my desktop into a folder to save them should I need them for something else. Hope this helps. Roly

Oh no, Marge, I went crazy doing this to try and drum up handyman work in the beginning of the recession.Well over 800 of them and just one letter took as long to do as a scroll sawed name nowadays.Hand detailed painting takes forever.I put my best foot forward to try to make it and make it i did but not from the names. :cool:
